Hey, everybody.
No rarities to report, but that doesn't mean the birding wasn't good at Waneka Lake & environs, eastern Boulder County, yesterday, Thurs., Jan. 17. Highlights for me were 1 Taverner cackling goose, 1 apparent snow goose x Canada goose hybrid (and I would venture "blue" goose x "Lesser" Canada, but that's getting deep in the thickets), 3 wood ducks, 1 aberrant mallard that I think was "just" a domestic; all three mergansers, including some intense and insane-looking second-year male hooded mergansers, 3 bald eagles; 2 bushtits, perhaps a pair prospecting for nest sites; 1 Townsend solitaire; and 1 spotted towhee.
